Hello --- GREAT program, it's one of the linchpins of my home theater system, so thank you!
I have two issues, both of which are more annoyances than anything else:
First, my setup. I use Ultramon mostly to just switch between my computer and my TV. My computer is running 64-bit Windows 7, with a screen resolution of 1920x1200. My TV is 1920x1080.
Problem 1) When I switch from my TV back to my Computer, all of my windows maximize UNDER the taskbar (i.e. they maximize to the whole screen, as if the taskbar weren't there, such that the taskbar covers the bottoms of any maximized windows). In order to fix this, I have to go into taskbar properties and toggle "Auto-hide the taskbar" on and off. This seems to reset things, 'bumping' all of the windows up so they maximize to the top of the taskbar instead of behind it.
Problem 2) This is a strange one, because it doesn't happen ALL of the time. But occasionally, when I switch monitors, the wallpaper slideshow I have set in Windows 7 display properties freezes on whichever wallpaper was last showing. (Right-click on Desktop --> "Personalize" --> "Desktop Background", and only one image is checked instead of all of them). I am not sure if this is because I haven't completely turned off ultraMon's wallpaper control; is there a certain way I can test that? (I'm happy having the same wallpaper for each monitor, so ultraMon doesn't have to do anything).
Again, fantastic program!

1) I'm not sure what might cause this, also haven't seen this myself so far. My guess would be a Windows issue, you could try if you have the same issue if you change display settings via Windows Display Properties, though this works a bit differently because you can't switch between the two monitors directly.
2) To verify that UltraMon isn't managing the wallpaper, go to UltraMon menu > Wallpaper, then check if (None) is selected as the wallpaper profile. This means UltraMon won't get involved with the desktop wallpaper.
Glad to hear you like UltraMon!
